Did any sort of sole surviving son exemption exist in the german WWII military? Or would the last son be exempt from fighting in the front lines?

Thanks!

Yes it did, I've seen it several times in the SSO-files (SS-Officers files) in Bundesarchiv Berlin. I haven't got any examples at hand, maybe others do.
